Jim Pewter has your favorite oldies.  These guys did such a great job with Command Information.  I was just listening to this one and realized I had spent a minute being interested in a spot about hepatitis .  I would have been in Korea around this time.  Street vendors, things swimming in the water.  I did avoid the tattoo parlors..

John Doremus 1969

  

Been a long time since we had a visit with John Doremus.  John was the big voice of soft music after Jim Ameche and before Pete Smith.  He recorded a bunch of PSAs for us that we were using many years after.  He was the one that brought music to air travel.  He hosted a nationwide program of soft muisc on the BIG AM stations in the 60s.  Big talent.
